HAHAHA sorry about the thumbnail guys, fixing now 😌🩷

[@marydavis2312]

honestly you could’ve fooled me😂

[@michellel4806]

i saw july and corrected myself thinking i must've read it wrong😂😂

[@littlebird3706]

Awesome Book explanations! Love the way you recommend your books. I can feel myself getting pumped to read Princess of Souls. Also I saw this book on goodreads giveaway called A Wolf in the Palace: A Polyamorous Story. I want to read it but I'm afraid its gonna be a dud. Please could you do a book review on it cause the the book cover looks really pretty and innocent but the summary is suspenseful. So far your recommendations have always been spot on!

[@thewillowtree4252]

The Baby doll thing on your bookshelf is killin' me 😭

[@catrastrophe]

the side eye its giving rachel lol 😭🤣

[@livscaglione4684]

Rach I think your thumbnail is wrong. It reads “July wrap up” instead of “June”.

[@RachelCatherine]

lol oops 🤦🏽‍♀️ fixed now!

[@AB-rc8zv]

Rachel you need to read "daughter of the pirate king" it's like to kill a kingdom but way better. The enemies to lovers is one of the best I ever read and the sea/pirate vibes are soo good. Trust me you won't be disappointed

[@RachelCatherine]

I actually can’t believe I haven’t read it! I’ve heard so much about it!! I’ll have to add it to my list!

[@leximor]

soooo happy you loved ruthless vows!!! ☺️

[@ChristianTheatreGirl]

I’m so glad you loved Ruthless Vows, I don’t know why so many people thought it was bad, it’s so amazing.

[@bubblebut005]

This gives me hope!! I’ve been scared to read it lol

[@ChristianTheatreGirl]

@@bubblebut005 lol. Pls do tho! It’s SO GOOD!

[@RachelCatherine]

I definitely understand what people were saying but yes I loved it!!

[@SarahsCozyCorner]

Girlie you look extra radiant and gorgeous in this video 😍🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@RachelCatherine]

Wow thank you so much 🥹😭

[@yejenniee]

I love your videos Sarah so much!

[@michellebell5676]

Love this! I really enjoy how you read popular books but also try different types of books. 😊

[@SamiKaye]

So happy you finally read Ruthless Vows! ✉️💕 I’m very intrigued by Princess of Souls! I love a good retelling! 👑📚

[@daniellewelsh5184]

My favourite in June was definitely Thieves Gambit - I know you have it on your TBR cart Rachel and I think you’re gonna love it!!!

[@itsteagan3216]

LOVE this vid Rachel!! but ngl that little baby doll thing on the shelf gave me the heebie jeebies

[@parapilot]

I love that you include a Bible verse in the beginning ❤

[@zainebsarts915]

honey the thumbnail says July wrap up it's must be June

[@Erinwotton337]

Great video Rachel so happy when you post a new video

[@laurenceriendeau5212]

Ahhh! So excited for this one!

[@rhayes8596]

finally read part of your world, yours truly + just for the summer this month. Why have I been sleeping on Abby Jimenez she is a phenomenal author! I love them all so much

[@malloriemoreno4263]

My favorite books this month were One Summer in Savannah and Demon Copperhead. They both had some real heavy topics, but the writing was beautiful and they made me think of things I normally wouldn’t think about.

[@emmaskapetis7603]

Great wrap up❤. I'm currently reading Not in love and I'm liking it so far though my opinion might end up changing later on because spice isn't usually my favourite thing in books.

[@LibrariesandLattes]

So glad you loved Tress, it’s in my top 5 of the year so far! 😀😍

[@ChristianTheatreGirl]

I only read four books in June because I was SO busy with the wizard of oz rehearsals and finals. But my average rating was a four and I enjoyed all the books I read. My favourite book of the month was Vow of Thieves.

[@janniemaldonado7422]

yay for ruthless vows so happy you read it 🥺🫶🏼💙

[@deighz33]

My favorite June read was The Rule Book by Sarah Adams. Her rom-coms are just hitting right this year, and I love the silly sweetness of her books.

[@sydneyholifield2987]

Yayay! Rachel video!

[@RachelCatherine]

[@kasialeszczynska9075]

I read Jasmine Throne in June and loved it! Definitely my favourite book of the month

[@sofiasverdrup6087]

I love your videos so much! You should do a going to church vlog! I would eat that video up! 😍

[@sonyajordan8597]

I’m rereading magnolia parks ITTD as an audiobook and it’s absolutely killing me once again. Tears of all kinds all the time. You need to do your reread soon!

[@KathyDubs]

My favorites in June were Ready or Not and Summer Romance!

[@Jordan_elaine]

So glad you finally read Ruthless Vows!!

[@user-no7sc6tm9w]

Love this 💕 Though it makes me want to add all the books to my TBR, which probably isn’t the best idea… 😉 I really enjoyed “The Veiled Kingdom” this month, you should totally pick it up!

[@manda_made]

Yay! Finally Ruthless Vows ❤ also, this shirt is adorable on you.

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great video Rachel!

[@poppycalliope]

Rachel if you enjoy a book I'm sure I will enjoy it too 🙈🥰 happy July reading!!! 📚💌☁🎧

[@anjah8249]

My favourite books in June were "Beartown" by Fredrik Backman and "Nettle & Bone" by T. Kingfisher. I had high expectactions for "Beartown" since I had only heard great things about it. I can confirm now, that all the positive reviews are correct, a 5 star read for me. "Nettle & Bone" was a suprise for me, it takes motives from fairytales (princess, fairy goodmother) and makes them into something new. It had a lot of depth, emotions, was sometimes painfully real, yet somehow it was also really funny. A truly unique book.

[@emmakisteman4602]

Making friendship bracelets for my eras tour show tomorrow and watching Rachels new video🎉🎉

[@mollyy106]

You really have convinced me that I need to read some of these 💗😂

[@cheyzah]

i read divine rivals and gave it 5 stars!!!! i also had 5 stars with a little life! it feels like it’s been a while since i had a 5 star so yayyy

[@BrinkleyK]

So far this year June has been my best reading month with me reading a total of 15 books. I can't pick one but some I really enjoyed reading were Funny Story by Emily Henry and the King of Sins series by Ana Huang.

[@Showtunediva]

15:15 Hi Rachel I just finished To Kill A Kingdom and can’t wait to read Princess Of Souls. Love you.❤

[@AshleyJade18]

My favourite book that i read in June was DEFINITELY 'The Other Side' by Kim Holden.... Omgosh that book WILL stick with me forever. 😭😭💖

[@aishaalsuwaidi5368]

Hey! 📚 Could you create a guide for fantasy books? The last one was so helpful! 🌟

[@Jordan_elaine]

“It’s really dumb but I loved it” 😂 that’s how I’m feeling about Tress too but I’m moving so slowly through it

[@Usishxbshsh]

My favorite read was I Hope This Doesn't Find You by Ann Liang. I've been going around recommending it to everyone lol it's academic rivals/enemies to lovers and the writing is so so so beautiful

[@booknerdktree]

My favorite book of June was Love and Other Goals by Tracy Baack!😍💗

[@kwoot07]

You totally sold me on “Out On a Limb”. I need a book with a differently-abled protagonist for a local bookshop’s summer bingo board, anyways 😁

[@moniquef4737]

My queen, your thumbnail says July wrap up instead of June ❤❤

[@RachelCatherine]

Getting a bit ahead of myself there aren’t I 🤦🏽‍♀️ updated it!!

[@SA-dl6su]

I thought she actually finished all her July TBR in that short period 😭

[@aralettesbookshelf]

you should definitely read into the crooked place if you're looking for more books by alexandra christo! it's pretty similar to six of crows and it's soo good!

[@RachelCatherine]

Omg surely!!! Adding to my list now!

[@ecr.7695]

Here's the thing about the similar book that you enjoyed versus the Carley Fortune book: enjoyment is important to a rating in my opinion, but if you think that the other book is better, then lower the CF book rating since you don't think about it too much. So I think 4.25/5 stars is still good in my eyes.

[@jaimefok]

the brando sando procrastination is real LOL

[@chocolateoreo6489]

I’m sending you love❤❤❤

[@sophiegeraeds8345]

Hi Rachel I’m a silent watcher but I was wondering where did you get your smaller copies of the Magnolia parks series in the OG covers? Please reply if you can ❤

[@katmancilla5777]

Its ok that it says july guys. We know what she meant. It would be probably a lot of trouble to take this down, fix it, and re upload. Also Rachel, loved this reading wrap up! Im really considering reading Divine rivals and ruthless vows now.

[@RachelCatherine]

tysm bestie!! Updated the thumbnail now 🥹

[@katmancilla5777]

@@RachelCatherine oh haha well hey that's good. But it was fine either way. 🥰

[@jessieried7987]

OMG FIRST !!! Love your videos ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@saskiaelisa06]

If you want to read more by Alexandra Christo I totally recommend the into the crooked place duology❤

[@readswithautumn]

My favorite was The Bodyguard by Katherine Center, but you have already read it!❤

[@allyssafetkenhour6929]

i love u rachel

[@marereadss]

ive never read a carley fortune book but do they have like lots of spice in them because her new one sounds intriguing and i'm not a huge fan of lots of it in books.

[@user-il7qq5ji8s]

I feel like I'm actually the only one who preferred this summer will be different to happy place haha. I need to read divine rivals😭

[@orlagracee]

my favourite book I read in june was daisy haites the great undoing but I think it’s going to take me a while to recover from the heartbreak

[@kayleigh8475]

What book is similar to This Summer Will Be Different? I loved this book and would love to read the original ☺️

[@ivyharling]

You need to read Summer Romance by Annabel Monaghan it’s so so good

[@RachelCatherine]

I may have picked it up recently 👀

[@tracyolson2739]

I was just wondering how you read so many books in one month??? How many hours a day do you have to read? Even when I really try I can’t come anywhere close to that much.

[@tishewbocks3244]

wait I love your accent 🥲

[@Bella-we2sq]

Where’s your top from it’s so cute

[@crobichaud]

I listened to Only A Monster and the sequel and I agree- it’s okay but it doesn’t stick with you.

[@susansegal1808]

When everyone says “Spice”what is considered spice?

[@yourgirl_miriam]

please tell me you're planning on reading Reckless by Lauren Roberts!! in the middle of reading it and IT TAKES THE WHOLE THING TO ANOTHER LEVEL!

[@RachelCatherine]

OF COURSE I AM BESTIE!!! 🥳🥳

[@yourgirl_miriam]

@@RachelCatherine YAY!!! I CANT WAIT TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS ON IT

[@vief123]

Which book reminds you of “The summer will be different”??!!! You made me curious🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Rach.nooksbooks]

This summer would be different is copy paste of what book?😊

[@whitneywest3538]

I gave This Summer Will Be Different 4 Stars. I deducted an entire star for moles.

[@LeftieLili13]

babes i hate to do this to you but thumbnail says july wrapup not june wrapup... ily anyways bestie

[@FaridyCamarillo]

Hii, love your videos🫶🏻🥰

[@kimlantz1804]

You know, the first, and only, book I’ve read from this author is Every summer after and LOVED it. Then a couple of months later I read Love and other stories after been standing on my TBR-shelf for ever. And the similarities between the books is ridiculous because… it’s the same book. It dosen’t make it your own work just because you switch small things between the characters. I was so disappointed. So, I am really sad to hear that she does it again. I mean what about copyrights…

[@monicaolmos4889]

HELLO FROM MEXICO

[@honeyloves010]

maybe some more people need to say someting about the thumbnail

[@RachelCatherine]

😂😂😂

[@turningpageswtori]

Starling House was such a pleasant surprise for me! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and had a fun time reading it! I completely agree with everything you said! (I gave it a 4.5✰) 🩷

[@jacelynbolton9083]

Literally think the same thing about Lauren Roberts… 😅🙈 copy and paste a bit 🫣
